May Day....What's for dinner? 5-1-2014

Yup Cheryl, those scallops are beauties. Any special seasoning on top, or is that just S&P? Whatever it is, they look yummy.

Thanks, CG. Just a little kosher salt and cracked pepper, with a squeeze of lemon after they're done. I make sure they're as dry as possible by wrapping them in paper towels for a while before frying them in a very hot skillet to get that nice sear.

Now I'm wishing I had stopped by the fish market while I was out, to get some yummy scallops! I think we'll have that tomorrow.

Yay! I sure wish I could get them fresh and not frozen, but sadly, I can't here. They are still sweet and yummy though.

Yes, we're lucky on the coast. One time when I stopped in the fish market, I was looking in the case, disappointed that there were no scallops, when the scallop vendor came in with a delivery. Caught that morning in Maine and trucked down! Can't get them much more fresh than that without going fishing!

Wow, you got double lucky there, GG!
